on you?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Well, it doesn't make any difference. You know how I
feel about you, Jeff. I would never stand in your way.
But I wonder how missus Davis will take it. And
what about Barnie Davis?
Speaker 8 (07:23):

(07:54):
seven rights the devil. Yeah, what is it, Bonnie? You busy? Doc? Well,

times with his ulcers. He ought to mess around with
stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
And what do you recommend in my case? I'm suffering
from a loss of fifty grand oh, or maybe we
ought to go up and see Tony say no more.
That's one prescription I'm going to follow. I understand you.

What's the matter, Tony? I thought I was speaking English? Yeah,
but I can't believe it. Who could have walked off
with that?
Speaker 8 (09:22):

ask you? What about doc here? I left the office
before you did. Well, I guess you're elected, Tony? Where
am I? That's the way it looks to me. What
about your missus Pats? You know what's a combination? Are
you and signor? Yeah? Yeah, take that back?
Speaker 7 (09:43):

(14:26):
you wearing.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
This is en hurly he again. Friends, I have a
little suggestion for you ladies who wonder what you're going
to do for some interesting menu ideas, And my suggestion
is this, Just get a two pound loaf of craft
smooth melting pasteurized process cheese food velveta. You can melt
velveta for smooth, delicious cheese sauce that add extra goodness
(14:59):
to vegetables or seafood or rice or just plain toast
for a fine main dish. And it's such an easy
sauce to make. All you do is melt a half
pound of velveta in the top of your double boiler.
Notice how smooth it melts, without any lumps at all.
Then slowly stir in a quarter of a cup of milk,
season to your taste, and there you have it, a
(15:21):
delicious cheese sauce with a wonderful, rich, yet mild cheddar
cheese flavor, a flavor that everyone, the youngsters and grandma included,
will enjoy often.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
And it's a wholesome dish.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Because Velvita is so rich in important food values from milk.
So whether you melt Velveta for a swell cheese sauce
or slice it thick for hearty sandwiches, you'll find Velvita
is a mighty handy helper.
Speaker 8 (15:48):
Mother.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Get a two pound loaf tomorrow, won't you. It's America's
favorite cheese food. The one and only Velvita made by kraft.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Ow back to the Adventures of the Falcon.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
And r has passed since Mike was retained by a
mister Vincent Scolari to solve the murder of Jeff Rogers.
And now as we find Mike, he's about to earn
his retainer.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Who is it?

Speaker 2 (18:33):
I'm glad it tickled you. We'll see if mister Waring
finds it so amusing.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Bonnie, you're not going up to see him? You mind, Darling.
You've got to believe me. There's absolutely nothing to it.
Why would I want a divorce?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
That's what I intend to find out. And I don't
think anyone can be as helpful in that as mister Waring.
You must be Mike Wearing, it must be. And you.

My name is Barney Davis. What's on your mind?
Speaker 8 (19:08):
Davis?
Speaker 7 (19:08):

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Call me Barney? Everyone therese does. Oh. I wouldn't presume.
Speaker 7 (19:12):

I'm working for a girl named Rita Sherman, the woman
they're holding for that Jeff what's his name's murder? That's right.
(19:36):
What does pat have to do with her? But you're
providing part of the answer right now. I don't get it.
Your wife was running around with Jeff Rogers. You're a liar.
She didn't even know the guy. Well, I'll bet you
try to stop you from coming up here and learning
the truth. What am I right now? Listen to me, Wearing?

doc well me. Yeah, come in here for a second.

me it was his fault. He and Rita broke up.
Roger had nothing to do with it. But you know
Rita didn't kill him. Yes, Corbett, this boy, Jeff was
quite a man with the ladies that I discovered for myself. Well,
did you discover anything about a girl named pat Davis?
(21:32):
Pat Davis? Now? Well, Jeff kissed her off. How do
you know that? I'll leave it to Rita. You don't
think i'd take her word for it. She may know something,
she might, but I doubt it Otherwise, she certainly wouldn't
have hired you. Well, let's find out, all right, lions,
(21:57):
open them up him, Hey, what happened to you? Got
that for us? In his head? Huh? Come on, open
them up, alright out.
Speaker 9 (22:09):
You're wasting your time, Sergeant. I am not answering any
more questions.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
You'll have to answer.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
Who are you?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Mike Wearing? Mike Wearing, Yeah, your husband hired me to
act for you. My husband, Vincent's Collari All.
Speaker 9 (22:23):
Right, all right, I give up. What's the answer.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Well, it's very simple, reader, I doubt it.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
I've done a lot of silly things in my life,
but I never got married. What but you can stick around,
mister Wearing, Maybe we can do business.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Remember tomorrow, at your grocers you can get a wonderful
new salad oil for your homemade salad dressings you're cooking,
you're baking. It's Craft salad oil, the first salad oil
for home use ever offered by the makers of all
those wonderful craft dressings. Craft salad oil is a lighter
(23:06):
bodied oil, super fine to blend perfectly with other ingredients.
Get a pine or quart bottle tomorrow at your grocer's.
Ask for Craft salad oil, and now back to the
adventures of the Falcon. Just a few seconds have passed
(23:31):
since Mike Waring learned that Rita Sherman was never a bride,
from which our hero draws one conclusion. Obviously, if Rita
was never married, her husband couldn't have hired Mike.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I don't get it. I don't get it at all.
Speaker 9 (23:43):
You boys are fooling me. Seem I just as well
run along.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Turn it a Scalari claimed you with your husband could
have been well, he gave me five hundred dollars to
represents you.
Speaker 9 (23:51):
Here looks So what does that prove?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Well? What have I got to gain by a story
like this?
Speaker 9 (23:56):
I don't know. Maybe you're a cop.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I'm a private detective.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
Are you any good?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
The fucking god? I sing? Sayings lauded with people who'll
be glad to vouch for him? Or I sergeant knock off?
Listen reading, you have no idea who this glory is?
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Well? What did he look like?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Good looking boy? At least he was before someone played
potzy on his face? About five or eleven, dark haired, Nope,
spoke with a very slight accent. I can't place him,
but he must be a friend of yours.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
How do you figure that?
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Well, this was hardly the act of an enemy. Unless
he was so confident I would follow this up and
land you in the chair. He could do that too,
you know. Listen, Mike, you sure you haven't imagined all this?
Does Barney Davis fit into this? Remember that Pat Davis
had told you about? Yeah, that's his wife. Why didn't
you say so before? He didn't give me a chance.
Do you know anything about this reading?
Speaker 9 (24:44):
Well, only that Jeff used to see you occasionally.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Was he in love with her?
Speaker 9 (24:47):
I wouldn't think so. He only brought one ticket to Canada.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
And you knew he was running out on him.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
He was running out on Missus Davis. I was supposed
to meet him there later.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Why would he run out on her? Well?
Speaker 4 (24:59):
I wouldn't, oh for sure, But I think she gave
him some money to invest.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Oh how much money?
Speaker 9 (25:04):
I have no idea?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Well, I have huh an idea. I just gotta haunt you.
This Vincent Scolari might be, oh fellow named Tony Farrell.
He works for Barney Davis. He does did the last
I heard? What are we waiting for? A sergeant? Let's
see if he's still gainfully employed. Hello, Bonnie, Well it
(25:32):
isn't my good friend of Falcon. Yeah, so a little
the worse for wear? Nah? How did that happen? You
don't really care, you know, Sergeant Corbett? Oh sure, how
are you? Sergeant? Fine? I brought him along the vouch
for me. You wouldn't believe me when I told you
I wasn't working for your wife? Well I believe you. Now.
That's pretty big of you. What convinced you? Pat told
me the truth? Uh? Your wife roun No? Where is
(25:55):
she out? You mean you trust her alone? What kind
of a crack is that? Oh? Come on, Barney.
Speaker 8 (26:00):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
You know the last guy who sounded off like that
is Tony Furrow. How did you know about him? He
was up to see me. You made a bad enemy there.
I'm not worried. You should be. You know what he
went and did? No, but you're going to tell me anyway?
He hired me to work for Rita Sherman. Well, but
don't you see his motive? He hoped that I could
(26:20):
pin the Jeff Rogers murder on you. Why me? Because
he hated you and you were a hot suspect. Your
wife was seeing Rogers. Listen wearing. I told you before,
and you've got a face at Barnie. You've been a patsy.
Take that back, watch Davis. Believe me that little girl
never deserved anything you did for, including murder. What did
you say a wife? Pretend Bonnie you heard me the
first time? All right, Sergeant, make like a policeman.
Speaker 9 (26:58):
I know I shouldn't ask question, Mike.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
No, don't be silly, reader, I'd be disappointed if you didn't.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
Well, all right, then what was this all about?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Oh? It was the oldest story in the world. Angel
Bonnie thought Jeff Rogers was going to steal his wife,
so he took steps.
Speaker 9 (27:12):
Said steps being to Jeff's room where he killed him.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Huh, exactly.
Speaker 9 (27:16):
Well, how did you know that Barnie was the guilty critter?
Speaker 2 (27:19):
When I learned that Vincent's Scullari was Tony's herauh Well.
Speaker 9 (27:22):
If your purpose was to confuse me, mister Warren, you succeeded.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well do you know why Tony was beating up?
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Yeah, because he.
Speaker 9 (27:29):
Made a crack about Bonnie's wife, which.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Came out when Bonnie was questioning him about fifty grand
that was missing from the safe. So so if Tony
had swiped the dough in addition to insulting Pat Davis,
what do you think would have happened to him?
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Bonnie would have killed him?
Speaker 2 (27:43):
And the mere fact that Tony was alive therefore meant
that Bonnie had checked up on a story and found
it to be true. And once I realized that Bonnie
knew about Rogers and his wife, I knew he killed him.
Speaker 9 (27:53):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
How good for you any further questions, Angel, Well then
it's my turn. Now. How is for you and me
to Nope? How can you tell what I was going to.
Speaker 9 (28:05):
Say when it comes to that department? Every woman's a detective.
Good night, Angel.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
There comes a time in the life of every homemaker
when she has to fix a dinner fast, and that's
when Craft Dinner.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Is such a help.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
You see, in just seven minutes cooking time, Kraft Dinner
makes delicious macaroni and cheese, wonderful tender macaroni with fine
cheese flavor all through, just like I said, in only
seven minutes cooking time. That's because every package of Kraft
Dinner gives you a special quick cooking macaroni and just
the right amount of craft grated for that grand cheese flavor.
(28:51):
So tomorrow get a couple of packages of craft dinner.

Now the case of the harried husband.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
It is early Sunday evening in New York and a
handsome boy named Jeff Rogers nonsinately walks down the fourth
floor cartor at the hotel meet. It's obvious from mister
Rogers's attitude he thinks he doesn't have a care.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
In the morning.
Speaker 8 (02:15):
When he opens the.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Door to his room, he learns differently.

Well you had no business, of course, not, Jeff.
Speaker 9 (02:33):
But you're a hard man to see these days.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Well, as a matter of fact, you were just about
to call me word of honor. Don't lie, honey, you
do it very badly on a look right, don't take
on so, Jeff. On the other hand, there are things
you do exceptionally well, which reminds me, how's missus Davis.
Speaker 8 (02:54):
You mean Pat Davis?
Speaker 9 (02:55):
Who else? What I mean?
Speaker 8 (02:56):
You know what that is?
Speaker 9 (02:58):
I know what it better be.
Speaker 8 (03:00):
There's no reason for you to act like this.
Speaker 9 (03:02):
Oh sure, but then there's no reason for me to
be nuts about you? Are there? You're not the brightest
guy in the world.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
No, and when it comes to looks, I've known prettier
boys too.
Speaker 8 (03:12):
Still, you're crazy about me.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Heaven help me, and Heaven help you if you got
any ideas about this, Pat Davis, I.
Speaker 8 (03:20):
Tell you, sweetheart, it's strictly business.
Speaker 9 (03:22):
When did you pay off?
Speaker 8 (03:23):
Well, you know how it is. These things take time.
Speaker 9 (03:26):
That's what you told me last week.
Speaker 8 (03:28):
Well you just be patient, babies.

Yeah, and a racket like his, he must keep a
lot of cash on hand.

Well, well, doesn't he?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
I suppose.
Speaker 8 (05:32):
So what do you mean you suppose?
Speaker 10 (05:33):
So if someone plays a number that hits, Barney has
to pay him off right away.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
Well, I don't know much about Barnie's business.
Speaker 8 (05:40):
Well take it from me.
Speaker 10 (05:41):
It's strictly cash and carry, and policy in this town
is heavy cash.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Well, oh, what do you want me to do?
Speaker 8 (05:49):
Find out where Barney keeps it. But don't worry, we're
not going to take it with us. As soon as
our horse comes in, you'll put it back. Then it's
you and me for foreign short hard and make up
your mind. They're not going to hold a boat for us.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
All right, Jeff, you can make the reservations.
Speaker 8 (06:19):
Come Hello, Jeff, you back again, Riata.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
Evidently I was wondering how you made out with Pat Davis?
Speaker 7 (06:28):
Not so hot?
Speaker 9 (06:29):
What happened?
Speaker 8 (06:30):
I guess it just wasn't my night.
Speaker 9 (06:32):
I can't believe it.
Speaker 8 (06:34):
It does seem incredible, doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
It does to me, honey, because you know I think
you're irresistible.
Speaker 8 (06:41):
You want my autograph, Well, if it's on a.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Picture, it might help. It would be a wonderful way
to remember you.
Speaker 9 (06:48):
Come again, Well, obviously I'm not going to have much more.
Speaker 8 (06:51):
What are you raving about I picked up this.
Speaker 9 (06:53):
Envelope at the desk.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
I've already opened it, and can you imagine my surprise?
Speaker 9 (07:01):
I didn't know you were going to Canada?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Who says I am?
Speaker 7 (07:04):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (07:04):
Did you buy the ticket for a friend?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (07:06):
Not read a baby. You don't think i'd run out
on you?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Well, it doesn't make any difference. You know how I
feel about you, Jeff. I would never stand in your way.
But I wonder how missus Davis will take it. And
what about Barnie Davis?
Speaker 8 (07:23):
What about Barnie Davis.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I was just wondering if he'll be able to bear
up under his loss. Have a nice ride, Jeff, I've had.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Mine forty one left, twenty eight rights, fourteen left thirty
(07:54):
seven rights the devil. Yeah, what is it, Bonnie? You busy? Doc? Well,
I was just gonna take my vitamin. Well, take a
double dose later. Come in here. I want to show
you something. What's cooking, Bonnie? Me? Take a look at
(08:19):
that safe. Hey, someone's been in there. Yeah. Hey, well,
don't look at me, Bonnie. I don't know nothing about it.
You sure, Doc? I swear it was over fifty grand
in that tale.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
I ain't the only one who's got the combination? What
about Tony Farrow? He left the place after I did
last night?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Get him? He ain't? He phone this morning say he
wasn't coming in.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
No, no, he said he ate some Chinese food or
something yesterday didn't.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Feel so hot.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
If I told him once, I told him a million
times with his ulcers. He ought to mess around with
stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
And what do you recommend in my case? I'm suffering
from a loss of fifty grand oh, or maybe we
ought to go up and see Tony say no more.
That's one prescription I'm going to follow. I understand you.
(09:16):
What's the matter, Tony? I thought I was speaking English? Yeah,
but I can't believe it. Who could have walked off
with that?
Speaker 8 (09:22):
Though?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Oddly enough, that's just the question I was going to
ask you? What about doc here? I left the office
before you did. Well, I guess you're elected, Tony? Where
am I? That's the way it looks to me. What
about your missus Pats? You know what's a combination? Are
you and signor? Yeah? Yeah, take that back?
Speaker 7 (09:43):
Let me go?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Are you gonna take that back? You think you're smart? Well,
let me tell you something, mister Davis, you're sucker. If
I told you what I know about Pat? What do
you know about Pat? Never mind? But I do mind?
And if you're trying to keep a secret from me,
(10:04):
I know just the thing to bring it out in
the opening?
Speaker 5 (10:22):
Who's there?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Tell me? Pa?

That might help?
Speaker 5 (10:36):
What happens?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Oh? You know I don't like to bother you with
my problems.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
You always treat me as though I were a child.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I didn't mean it that way, honey. Well, here's the worse.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
No, I won't drink with you unless you tell me
what happened.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Well, you know Tony Farrell works for me.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
The one who's always walking around with all those pills.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
No, No, that's Doc Juden. Tony's the tall, good looking one.
Of course, he isn't so handsome right now? What do
you mean he said a couple of things about you?
Speaker 7 (11:07):
What?
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
What did he say that.
Speaker 2 (11:11):

Speaker 5 (11:13):

Speaker 1 (14:36):
This is en hurly he again. Friends, I have a
little suggestion for you ladies who wonder what you're going
to do for some interesting menu ideas, And my suggestion
is this, Just get a two pound loaf of craft
smooth melting pasteurized process cheese food velveta. You can melt
velveta for smooth, delicious cheese sauce that add extra goodness
(14:59):
to vegetables or seafood or rice or just plain toast
for a fine main dish. And it's such an easy
sauce to make. All you do is melt a half
pound of velveta in the top of your double boiler.
Notice how smooth it melts, without any lumps at all.
Then slowly stir in a quarter of a cup of milk,
season to your taste, and there you have it, a
(15:21):
delicious cheese sauce with a wonderful, rich, yet mild cheddar
cheese flavor, a flavor that everyone, the youngsters and grandma included,
will enjoy often.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
And it's a wholesome dish.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Because Velvita is so rich in important food values from milk.
So whether you melt Velveta for a swell cheese sauce
or slice it thick for hearty sandwiches, you'll find Velvita
is a mighty handy helper.
Speaker 8 (15:48):
Mother.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Get a two pound loaf tomorrow, won't you. It's America's
favorite cheese food. The one and only Velvita made by kraft.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Ow back to the Adventures of the Falcon.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
And r has passed since Mike was retained by a
mister Vincent Scolari to solve the murder of Jeff Rogers.
And now as we find Mike, he's about to earn
his retainer.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Who is it?
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Telegram, missus Pat Davis?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Just a minute?
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Hello?
Speaker 5 (16:29):
You're not with Western Union.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Well, I tried to enlist, but they wouldn't have me.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
What do you want?
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Awfully drafty out here? Well, now I can assure you,
missus Davis, I'm perfectly respectable. I'm a second class scouting
through eighty seven.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Come in.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Thanks.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
You don't look like a boy scout to me.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Well, I'm kind of tall for my age. What's your name,
mister wearing?
Speaker 5 (16:53):
Just wearing?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Well, as a mic that goes in front of it,
but no one seems what's the matter, missus Davis? Something? Bernie?
Why the way you wrinkled your nose when I mentioned
my name? I thought maybe you smelled something offensive?
Speaker 5 (17:05):
Maybe I did? Huh balkan?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Oh what do you want? Well, as I started to explain,
in order to be a first class scout, I have
to pass map making and my assignment is to located
all the Pat Davis's in New York.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
How are you doing well?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Not there? Would you mind telling me a little about yourself?
What kind of men do you prefer?
Speaker 5 (17:24):
Those who know where they are not wanted?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Oh, they're hard to find. Was Jeff Rogers? Like that? Who?
Jeff Rogers?
Speaker 8 (17:32):
Boy?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Who was murdered last night?
Speaker 6 (17:34):
I never had the pleasure you sure if that's the
only reason you came there?
Speaker 5 (17:38):
I know I can get you've been reading my mind.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Well, I've had enough practice. But I don't know what
I'm going to tell my scout master. He's going to
be awfully disappointed.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
Who's there?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Only me? Pat your home?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
Early?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yes? Yes, I had a purpose. I wanted to apologize
for last night. You stormed out of here before I
had a chance to say I'm sorry. Well, well now
I'm no longer sorry. What what was the falcon doing here?
Who a private detective?
Speaker 5 (18:19):
There was no one here?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
All I have to don't lie to me, pat doctor
Julian saying, are you going to take here? Y? Did
you wire Wearing to get you evidence for a divorce?
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Did I? That's the funniest thing I've heard in years.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I'm glad it tickled you. We'll see if mister Waring
finds it so amusing.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Bonnie, you're not going up to see him? You mind, Darling.
You've got to believe me. There's absolutely nothing to it.
Why would I want a divorce?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
That's what I intend to find out. And I don't
think anyone can be as helpful in that as mister Waring.
You must be Mike Wearing, it must be. And you.
(19:05):
My name is Barney Davis. What's on your mind?
Speaker 8 (19:08):
Davis?
Speaker 7 (19:08):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Call me Barney? Everyone therese does. Oh. I wouldn't presume.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
No.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
I want us to be real friendly. You were around
to see my wife this afternoon, you asking or telling me?
I'm telling you, how long have you known it? We
just met this afternoon? You're lying? Okay? Have about your way.
We were child at Sweethearts who put her up to
getting the divorce? Look, Davis, you're out of your mind.
I'm working for a girl named Rita Sherman, the woman
they're holding for that Jeff what's his name's murder? That's right.
(19:36):
What does pat have to do with her? But you're
providing part of the answer right now. I don't get it.
Your wife was running around with Jeff Rogers. You're a liar.
She didn't even know the guy. Well, I'll bet you
try to stop you from coming up here and learning
the truth. What am I right now? Listen to me, Wearing?
I love my wife. Well, bully for you. And if
you think you're kidding me with this routine, you're not
doc well me. Yeah, come in here for a second.
(20:01):
Were in good thing? This is mister Wearing. What do
you think of the specimen? You mean you want a diagnosis? No,
I've diagnosed this trouble myself. What I want you to
do is give him a treatment. Oh sure, look, little man,
put away the lead pipe.
Speaker 8 (20:21):
You got it wrong, Wearing.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
It's a very delicate instrument. You heard of him taking
a spinal tap, didn't you? Huh? Well, I worked the
other ring. I'm just gonna tap your skull. Oh oh,
how do you feel my huh? I don't know why
(20:47):
I should try to revive him. This is the first
time I can remember you being quiet in months. When
did you get here? Sergeant soil Pintendent falled me after
the brawl was over. Now what went on here? And
you know that Rita Schumann you're holding the girl who
murdered her boyfriend. She didn't. What makes you so sure
she's my client? Silly of me to even ask. It's
(21:11):
funny Rita didn't tell me about it is her husband
who hired me. What's his name, Vincent Scalari. He told
me it was his fault. He and Rita broke up.
Roger had nothing to do with it. But you know
Rita didn't kill him. Yes, Corbett, this boy, Jeff was
quite a man with the ladies that I discovered for myself. Well,
did you discover anything about a girl named pat Davis?
(21:32):
Pat Davis? Now? Well, Jeff kissed her off. How do
you know that? I'll leave it to Rita. You don't
think i'd take her word for it. She may know something,
she might, but I doubt it Otherwise, she certainly wouldn't
have hired you. Well, let's find out, all right, lions,
(21:57):
open them up him, Hey, what happened to you? Got
that for us? In his head? Huh? Come on, open
them up, alright out.
Speaker 9 (22:09):
You're wasting your time, Sergeant. I am not answering any
more questions.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
You'll have to answer.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
Who are you?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Mike Wearing? Mike Wearing, Yeah, your husband hired me to
act for you. My husband, Vincent's Collari All.
Speaker 9 (22:23):
Right, all right, I give up. What's the answer.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Well, it's very simple, reader, I doubt it.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
I've done a lot of silly things in my life,
but I never got married. What but you can stick around,
mister Wearing, Maybe we can do business.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Remember tomorrow, at your grocers you can get a wonderful
new salad oil for your homemade salad dressings you're cooking,
you're baking. It's Craft salad oil, the first salad oil
for home use ever offered by the makers of all
those wonderful craft dressings. Craft salad oil is a lighter
(23:06):
bodied oil, super fine to blend perfectly with other ingredients.
Get a pine or quart bottle tomorrow at your grocer's.
Ask for Craft salad oil, and now back to the
adventures of the Falcon. Just a few seconds have passed
(23:31):
since Mike Waring learned that Rita Sherman was never a bride,
from which our hero draws one conclusion. Obviously, if Rita
was never married, her husband couldn't have hired Mike.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I don't get it. I don't get it at all.
Speaker 9 (23:43):
You boys are fooling me. Seem I just as well
run along.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Turn it a Scalari claimed you with your husband could
have been well, he gave me five hundred dollars to
represents you.
Speaker 9 (23:51):
Here looks So what does that prove?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Well? What have I got to gain by a story
like this?
Speaker 9 (23:56):
I don't know. Maybe you're a cop.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I'm a private detective.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
Are you any good?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
The fucking god? I sing? Sayings lauded with people who'll
be glad to vouch for him? Or I sergeant knock off?
Listen reading, you have no idea who this glory is?
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Well? What did he look like?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Good looking boy? At least he was before someone played
potzy on his face? About five or eleven, dark haired, Nope,
spoke with a very slight accent. I can't place him,
but he must be a friend of yours.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
How do you figure that?
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Well, this was hardly the act of an enemy. Unless
he was so confident I would follow this up and
land you in the chair. He could do that too,
you know. Listen, Mike, you sure you haven't imagined all this?
Does Barney Davis fit into this? Remember that Pat Davis
had told you about? Yeah, that's his wife. Why didn't
you say so before? He didn't give me a chance.
Do you know anything about this reading?
Speaker 9 (24:44):
Well, only that Jeff used to see you occasionally.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Was he in love with her?
Speaker 9 (24:47):
I wouldn't think so. He only brought one ticket to Canada.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
And you knew he was running out on him.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
He was running out on Missus Davis. I was supposed
to meet him there later.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Why would he run out on her? Well?
Speaker 4 (24:59):
I wouldn't, oh for sure, But I think she gave
him some money to invest.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Oh how much money?
Speaker 9 (25:04):
I have no idea?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Well, I have huh an idea. I just gotta haunt you.
This Vincent Scolari might be, oh fellow named Tony Farrell.
He works for Barney Davis. He does did the last
I heard? What are we waiting for? A sergeant? Let's
see if he's still gainfully employed. Hello, Bonnie, Well it
(25:32):
isn't my good friend of Falcon. Yeah, so a little
the worse for wear? Nah? How did that happen? You
don't really care, you know, Sergeant Corbett? Oh sure, how
are you? Sergeant? Fine? I brought him along the vouch
for me. You wouldn't believe me when I told you
I wasn't working for your wife? Well I believe you. Now.
That's pretty big of you. What convinced you? Pat told
me the truth? Uh? Your wife roun No? Where is
(25:55):
she out? You mean you trust her alone? What kind
of a crack is that? Oh? Come on, Barney.
Speaker 8 (26:00):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
You know the last guy who sounded off like that
is Tony Furrow. How did you know about him? He
was up to see me. You made a bad enemy there.
I'm not worried. You should be. You know what he
went and did? No, but you're going to tell me anyway?
He hired me to work for Rita Sherman. Well, but
don't you see his motive? He hoped that I could
(26:20):
pin the Jeff Rogers murder on you. Why me? Because
he hated you and you were a hot suspect. Your
wife was seeing Rogers. Listen wearing. I told you before,
and you've got a face at Barnie. You've been a patsy.
Take that back, watch Davis. Believe me that little girl
never deserved anything you did for, including murder. What did
you say a wife? Pretend Bonnie you heard me the
first time? All right, Sergeant, make like a policeman.
Speaker 9 (26:58):
I know I shouldn't ask question, Mike.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
No, don't be silly, reader, I'd be disappointed if you didn't.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
Well, all right, then what was this all about?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Oh? It was the oldest story in the world. Angel
Bonnie thought Jeff Rogers was going to steal his wife,
so he took steps.
Speaker 9 (27:12):
Said steps being to Jeff's room where he killed him.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Huh, exactly.
Speaker 9 (27:16):
Well, how did you know that Barnie was the guilty critter?
Speaker 2 (27:19):
When I learned that Vincent's Scullari was Tony's herauh Well.
Speaker 9 (27:22):
If your purpose was to confuse me, mister Warren, you succeeded.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well do you know why Tony was beating up?
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Yeah, because he.
Speaker 9 (27:29):
Made a crack about Bonnie's wife, which.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Came out when Bonnie was questioning him about fifty grand
that was missing from the safe. So so if Tony
had swiped the dough in addition to insulting Pat Davis,
what do you think would have happened to him?
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Bonnie would have killed him?
Speaker 2 (27:43):
And the mere fact that Tony was alive therefore meant
that Bonnie had checked up on a story and found
it to be true. And once I realized that Bonnie
knew about Rogers and his wife, I knew he killed him.
Speaker 9 (27:53):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
How good for you any further questions, Angel, Well then
it's my turn. Now. How is for you and me
to Nope? How can you tell what I was going to.
Speaker 9 (28:05):
Say when it comes to that department? Every woman's a detective.
Good night, Angel.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
There comes a time in the life of every homemaker
when she has to fix a dinner fast, and that's
when Craft Dinner.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Is such a help.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
You see, in just seven minutes cooking time, Kraft Dinner
makes delicious macaroni and cheese, wonderful tender macaroni with fine
cheese flavor all through, just like I said, in only
seven minutes cooking time. That's because every package of Kraft
Dinner gives you a special quick cooking macaroni and just
the right amount of craft grated for that grand cheese flavor.
(28:51):
So tomorrow get a couple of packages of craft dinner.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
